Earth Day

Calling all gardeners, painters, and environmentally-conscious students! It’s that time of year again and what better way to celebrate Earth Day than to beautify our two communities?

Given the success of last year’s North Lake Shore Earth Day, Loyola Community Relations will once again partner with Aldermen Joe Moore and Harry Osterman, Senator Heather Steans, and State Representative Kelly Cassidy, to sponsor the 2016 Earth Day Clean and Green. Students and local residents will partake in hands-on service projects to support green efforts in the 48th and 49th Wards which will foster student-neighbor relations and positively impact the surrounding communities. This event coincides with the City of Chicago’s Clean & Green, which means all hands will be on deck to participate at variety of project sites from light gardening to litter-removal!

Loyola’s North Lake Shore Earth Day event will take place on April 16th from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Where: Meet in Damen Student Center (students will meet here and then venture out to their project sites)

After our day of service, please join us for an after party to celebrate all of our hard work and the community!
